laboratories on the same phone. SAR
is the measurement of the amount
of energy absorbed in tissue, either
by the whole body or a small part of
the body. It is measured in watts/
kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This
measurement is used to determine
whether a wireless phone complies
with safety guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to
reduce my exposure to
radiofrequency energy from
my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products -
and at this point we do not know that
there is - it is probably very small. But
if you are concerned about avoiding
even potential risks, you can take a
few simple steps to minimize your
exposure to radiofrequency energy
(RF). Since time is a key factor in how
much exposure a person receives,
reducing the amount of time spent
using a wireless phone will reduce RF
exposure. If you must conduct extended
conversations by wireless phone every
day, you could place more distance
between your body and the source of
the RF, since the exposure level drops
off dramatically with distance. For
example, you could use a headset and
carry the wireless phone away from
your body or use a wireless phone
connected to a remote antenna. Again,
the scientific data do not demonstrate
that wireless phones are harmful.
But if you are concerned about the
RF exposure from these products, you
can use measures like those described
above to reduce your RF exposure from
wireless phone use.
10. What about children using
wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show
a danger to users of wireless phones,
including children and teenagers.
If you want to take steps to lower
exposure to radiofrequency energy
(RF), the measures described above
would apply to children and teenagers
using wireless phones. Reducing
the time of wireless phone use and
increasing the distance between the
user and the RF source will reduce
